Hi!

I was going to send a long and passionate defence for the inclusion of

the horizontal rule (or "The Thematic Break" according to mozilla web

docs) when a line started with three hyphens. But on the last

before, and it turns out it had been already proposed, and not only

that, but I can't find a counter argument:

I'm wondering now: why wasn't it accepted? Was it just forgotten?

Thanks for your time!
